    1981 DZ 10 d obv.JPG 1981 DZ 10 d rev.JPG I think that is another of the "Free French" coins, not minted by the Vichy government in France. Nice one! Here is a 1981 Algeria 10 dinars

    Yep! South Africa definitely counts. As @coin_nut mentioned, that one is a halfpenny, not half-dollar.

    In British territories, before the adoption of decimal coinage, "D" (or more often, the lowercase "d") was the abbreviation for "penny".

    Why such a seemingly weird abbreviation? It goes way, way back to medieval times. Denarium was the Latin word for "penny".
